Third trimester rant

[sirmione16]

Anyone else feel like having a rant? I'm so OVER being pregnant. I'm 36 weeks tomorrow, my feet hurt, my legs cramp a lot, my backs aching, I can't sleep AT ALL and everyone who walks in my path is in the firing line. I'm sick of people asking me about the pregnancy or about the baby or giving me their amazing advice. My body is DONE. Mentally I'm exhausted. I want my boy in my arms and get back to some sort of version of me. (Yes I know I won't be the old one, but a new mummy version is preferred over this bag of hormonal aching painful self)

Also Christmas has been so uneventful, I've not been able to drink, not wanted to get dolled up and not really wanted to socialise. All of the things i should be doing really.

WHOS WITH ME?! 'loud battle cry as I head for the chocolate cupboard'

Ah. Just me apparently.

I could have written that 38 weeks and so over being pregnant right now!

39+5 and losing the will!

@mumofmunchkin hi! Congrats! Is your "pregnancy glow" just hormone sweat too?!

I hear you. Am almost 37w with no 2 and just completely over it. Vomiting and nausea the whole way through, am SO mjuch bigger this time round, and the excruciating rib pain and 3am insomnia have started in the last couple of weeks. Plus my toddler’s clinginess levels have started to temp up. Totally ready to not be pregnant anymore!

36+4 today.

Hating it, I went for a gentle walk in the woods with the dog today. Was nearly in tears by the end of it. Every step was like red hot poker being jammed into my hip.

I have piles.

I can’t put my pants on without huffing and puffing and making undignified noises.

Baby thinks my bladder is a trampoline.

Fanny daggers are a thing

@Sexnotgender fanny daggers are a thing never thought I'd relate to this sentence yet here I am.

You're not alone. I'm 26 weeks and feeling utterly miserable and looking at another 14 weeks.
Stupidly tired, pain walking and even turning in bed. I have no idea how I'm gonna get through the next 14 weeks.
Been off over Christmas but been a rep misery guts. Slept or lay down for most of it. Haven't even managed going to the pub for a soft drink as I can't bear the thought of walking.
Still at the in laws, who are lovely but that's probably not helping either.

37 weeks today and desperate for baby to come out now. Been over it for several weeks!

Painful Braxton-Hicks every 2-4 hours have been teasing me for 2 weeks or so, on constant knicker watch for a show or waters but nothing yet.

My back hurts, sick of cankles, tired all the time, a small amount of walking is just plain draining, peeing every 1-2 hours, pelvic pain where baby is dropping and engaging (another tease ), conversation constantly being turned to pregnancy/baby by others (I was excited at first and welcomed the questions but now it's just annoying).

Can't remember what it feels like to not be pregnant and be able to eat what I want and drink what I want.

Women in the Facebook group I'm on are starting to have their babies, starting labour, or being induced over the next few days and I'm feeling quite jealous, so glad to have found this thread to have a moan!

Feel your pain 37+2 today and completely done!! Everything hurts constant heartburn and just generally feeling completely rubbish
